Restful

Quiet area where we were able to relax from the hustle and bustle, but still had connectivity to touch base where needed. The photos are accurate and this place was just what was needed to unwind. The hosts were prompt and courteous. Thanks for the great stay!

Family Vacay

This cottage is stunning, great fishing and a great overall experience. Only a few issues which the landlord didn't reply to, but may have been a communication issue. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed this property - it was everything we needed and more - 5 stars - only one negative - the driveway was snow plowed in but we made it work and had a few trucks to get down the drive to get into the cottage !!

Spacius cottage with a great host

The cottage is so spacious. It is very clean and comes with brand new appliences. The AC works perfectly and the home has great sealing to prevent temp loss. It has an indoor fire place perfect for winter time. And lasty, the host was nice and responsive. Defenitely recomend it.

Great secluded place to get away

Cottage was great and represents the setting as per the pictures. Amazing communication by the owners! It would be amazing if there were more bath towels, pillow covers, and blankets to align with the max guest allowance. I would also suggest changing mattresses particularly in the bunk beds. Overall good place to get away. The massive outdoor firepit is the highlight! Thanks

Great family getaway

We enjoyed all the amenities this cottage had to offer - kayaks, paddleboat, air hockey table and overall location. Lots of space to spread out so we didn't feel like we were on top of each other. The owner was also very responsive when we messaged him about a few questions we had. Just a note that the waste facility is open on Wednesdays at 9 am and on Saturdays at 11 am only. Recycling's free but they'll charge a minimum fee of $10 for garbage.

Cottage Escape

Beautiful location and property. Great little get away. A bit on the pricey side considering it was missing essential amenities such as kitchen utensils, bathroom essentials, blankets, bedding and towels. Pictures are deceiving because it appears to have everything but make sure you pack your own stuff to ensure that you will have everything you need for a relaxing uninterrupted stay. Bunker outside of cottage has additional sleeping space if travelling with a large group. Host responded but did not offer any solutions to help ensure guests were well looked after. Overall, it was a nice quiet spot to relax and get away for a bit, just make sure you pack well!

Hi there, thank you for your review. I’m sorry that you felt that some things were missing. We sent a detailed message with everything we had and also mentioned here in the notes that only the fitted sheet and pillows were provided. Unfortunately bathroom essentials such as towels, shampoo, conditioner etc are not provided for covid safety measures. We checked in to see if everything was ok and you stated that it was, other than not having a large knife. (Which we have added since) We do have kitchen utensils and all other basic kitchen necessities so I feel that this review will be misleading for other future guests as we have a fully stocked kitchen. We hope that you were still able to enjoy your time there.

Very disappointed

Place is cozy and decent for a young family. Had limited and wornout boating equipment. Be prepared to bring your own towels, duvet, pillow cases, extra dish soap, extra toilet paper, extra paper towels, bathing soap and shampoo because they don’t supply enough. Claimed to have a toaster, but didn't. No lighters. Not to mention flies everywhere. Leaving two stars because our experience with the host wasn’t very pleasant. Kind of rude and not accommodating when inquiring about the above. Had to run back and forth several times into town to pick up additional supplies.

Amazing Cottage Getaway!

This cottage was absolutely stunning. The sunset views were amazing every night, especially right after the thunder storm we had the one afternoon. From the time we arrived everything was great. Having 5 bedrooms for 10 people (6 adults, 4 kids) was perfect. There was lots of space for everyone. The cottage was clean when we arrived, and we made sure it was clean when we left. PROS: - Great location with lots of fishing (caught large mouth bass, pike, crappie, and tons of sunfish) - Lots to do (air hockey table, tree house - slide isn't very secure, swimming with the deep area in front of stones, board games, wifi, slip n slide, inflatable row boat, air compressor for all inflatable needs, water fountain, etc) - All the furniture was very nice and comfortable. Lots of seating for everyone. CONS: - could have used more plates & cookware. Always had to clean the dishes after every meal which is a lot of water usage. - some curtains were not anchored into the walls properly and kept falling - area is very weedy but that's not the fault of the owner. They did a great job of keeping the area deeper for swimming and the blower keeps the weeds away very well - Geese poop all over the yard. Again, not the fault of the owner as they kept coming up almost every morning. But we had to clean it because the kids kept stepping in it. - would be nice to have the ladder attached to the dock. - basement was at least 10 deg colder than upstairs when a/c on. Will return for sure!

Clean, affordable, beautiful property!

The cottage was everything as advertised and more! Amazing views, great fishing, and the cottage itself is very nicely updated with all the amenities you’d need. There were more than enough sleeping arrangements in the cottage for the 7 people in our group, with even more beds in one of the bunkies in the backyard. We had no issues, but the couple times I did contact the owners, the replies were instant. I definitely recommend, and would rent again in a heartbeat if I bring a larger group up that way in the future!
